Blind was the opening track on Korn's self-titled debut album in 1994 and became one of the band's signature songs from the emerging nu metal scene. Its introduction, built around Davis's repeated question, became instantly recognizable to metal fans and later circulated online as a standalone hype clip. Short video edits and soundboards trimmed the moment for reactions, gaming montages and entrances, where the familiar build signals that something loud is about to start. Its longevity comes from that simple, unmistakable setup before the full band crashes in.

The opening Are you ready shout from Korn's nu metal track Blind, used as a hype sound effect before fights, edits, reveals and intense moments.
This clip isolates the explosive opening moment from Korn's Blind, where Jonathan Davis builds tension over a sparse, ticking groove before shouting Are you ready in a raw, distorted voice. The delivery is aggressive and theatrical, shifting from quiet anticipation to full nu metal energy in seconds. Listeners instantly feel the pressure drop before a riff hits, which makes the sound work like a warning siren for chaos. It carries the grit of early 1990s alternative metal, with strained vocals that sound urgent rather than polished or melodic in any conventional pop sense.
